Where does Pages store templates?

I've downloaded some new templates and would like to have them show up with the other templates included in the original set.

Where do I put the new templates?

Thanks.

The easiest way is to open the template in Pages and then use Save as template in the File menu.

You can also manually put them in User > Library > Application Support > iWork > Templates > Pages

No, it's not the correct location !

The correct one is :

User > Library > Application Support > iWork > Templates > My Templates > Pages

It's really simple to learn that :

Menu > File > Save as Template

On the screenshot you may see the default path used by the app.

Isn't it what I passed ?

On my system, I have several copies of iWork

The French '09 one stores in :
User > Library > Application Support > iWork > Templates > My Templates > Pages
The English '09 one stores in
User > Library > Application Support > iWork09English > Templates > My Templates > Pages
The French '08 one stores in :
User > Library > Application Support > iWork08 > Templates > My Templates > Pages
The English '08 one stores in
User > Library > Application Support > iWork08English > Templates > My Templates > Pages

Because I made a bit of surgery to be able to use several of them at the same time with no problem with AppleScript.

Oops, what a fool

*_The screenshot is OK_* but I wrongly pasted the ' > Pages' component.

Fruhulda had

Yvan had
User > Library > Application Support > iWork > Templates > My Templates > Pages

I have
User > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates


Note that Pages comes before Templates as in Yvan's newer post.
